Possible...... Yes,

Practical...... Not really, You'll have problems getting the pressure right with cartridges and when you do the math it's VERY expensive. You can get the gear you need off eBay or at your local HBS but it's hard to get the pressure right by adding short bursts of gas and you'll be disappointed with the costs and results sooner rather than later.

You could naturally carb in the keg with priming sugar, unfermented wort, LDM or racking it 5 points or so before FG and then use your baby CO2 tanks to push the beer out...

 

Personally I would go and get 2 soda stream stream CO2 bottles ($50 for 2 @ kmart), a soda stream adapter Ebay and an entry level regulator.
